UE4 should work on Wii U cause its scalable, hell they said it would work on tablets and phones too.

Also I'm pretty sure it was Crytek that said they weren't going to support the Wii U.

I mean call me crazy, but this can´t be a good sign for the Wii U.

I only have one major issue.....

No system wide achievement system. Honestly it's a major buzz kill for me

"Though Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli thinks highly of the Wii U, he doesn't seem to believe the German developer has "a business case" that "justifies" developing a game for the system. Yerli adds, however, that Crytek's impressive engine (powering Crysis 3 next) has already been licensed for a Wii U project. 

"It doesn't mean that CryEngine 3 doesn't run on Wii U – it actually runs beautifully," Yerli told CVG. "In fact, there actually is a game in development from a respected developer that we will be announcing. I've seen the game running and it looks really great."

So, yeah, Crytek aren't making any games for it, BUT it can run on it. Sniper Ghost warrior is a CE3 game and I think that it's coming to the Wii U. Apart from that.. I don't know. Epic said that the UE4 would be able to run on smart phones as well as high end machines, BUT they also said that for now they'd only officially support the UE3 for the Wii U...

It's pretty messed up tbh... I remember John Riccitello coming on stage at E3 2011 during the Nintendo conference and saying that they're gonna be working together and all, would be bringing online, origin, battlefield, bla bla bla bla... Things got messy at some point me thinks.

The Wii U will have UE4 but whether Epic gives the engine active support on Wii U or not is the question.

That actually confirms nothing, because the UE3 and UE4 will have similar infrastructure. Porting/downscaling from the UE4 to the UE3 should/would not be hard. What he said doesn't confirm that the EU4 would work on the Wii U in any way.

That pretty much conforms you can put a UE4 game on the Wii U.  Are you suggesting that the Wii U would have to use a UE3 version of the game but everything else all the way down to cell phones could run UE4?

I heard that 7000 Wii Us were stolen from an airport. That's probably not very good.

It's selling about as well as I expected at the moment, which is to say, good.

What I'm interested in is if WiiU can maintain sales after the early-adopters all get one, the holidays are over and the 720/PS4 finally get announced. We should have a pretty good idea by March how WiiU will end up doing.

I haven't seen/heard/played anything on WiiU to change my opinion of it.

I don't think I quite follow...
